ENEB Master Thread

[Thorne]

That is a similar message to what i received from Foundation for International Services.  They don't want to answer your question without a pre-evaluation but since I came with a lot of research on Master propio as well as other evaluations received from different evaluation companies, IEE gave me the likelihood of it being evaluated as a Graduate Certificate.  Ironically,   every evaluation that comes out less than a Masters is considered accredited but once it is evaluated as a Masters it is non-accredited or unrecognized.  In theory, this is likely why they are offering MCA Business School validation so that they can attempt to top off ENEB as an accredited Masters since state-authorized school degrees are considered official and the certification of their courses through Isabel I cannot grant an official Masters.   If some of the evaluators accept validation degrees, it is essentially possible that they could equate it to a accredited Masters or something practically equivalent with a halfhearted explanation like "Masters degree from a non-accredited institution authorized to award degrees with recommendation of transferable credits due to certification by a regionally accredited school."

I'm curious when they'll set up a validation agreement with a DEAC school in the US for a $500 or so fee per program. Expensive, sure, but many of the DEAC schools would love to get easy money and only need to validate a program

We don't have that type of system in the U.S.

Not yet, we don't.

Doesn't mean it can't be attempted. Schools have lots of weird articulation practices, accepting ACE credits or blanket transferring an Associate's to cover all gen-eds even if the Associate's doesn't include gen-eds (in the case of AAS degrees). Lots of schools in the US also outsource their course development to a handful of companies. Who's to say that we won't see a validation scheme at some point in the near future that utilizes the outsourcing practice to an extreme?
